What Parents Should Know

The student-teacher ratio at Hill Side School is 22.7:1, which is higher than the national average. This may mean larger class sizes, so parents should ask about classroom support, teaching assistants, and how the school differentiates instruction for students who need extra help.
As a private school, Hill Side School operates independently from the local public school district.

Why doesn't this school have a score?
